If the above picture looks blurry and sketchy, it is only indicative of the ease of the transmission fluid change (i.e.- my first time was blurry and sketchy going!). For starters, into loosening 8 out of 14 bolts, I stripped a socket head, and spent thirty frustrating minutes spinning the tool around in vain. Br. A. came out and helped, turning an otherwise long experimental job into a relatively shorter expedition. He lent me a new tool, brought out a light (for the evening had just passed away in vain), and pulled out a blanket to shield my back from the asphalt. It ended up being a great learning experience (I changed the transmission filter, too!), and I'm grateful for the help. Everyone should try this at least once!
